Evening ladies
After a bad colour choice for my bedroom I went out today to buy a new colour and also bought two pots to chemically help strip off the unwanted paint. Fingers crossed I will love the new colour or be able to tolerate it for sometime! Paint is now so expensive it’s unbelievable!Okay thanks electrician has informed me that he hopes to come and do the work this Wednesday so fingers crossed.The person did the garage roof did not collect or remove the rubbish. I sent him a text last week and he has not bothered to reply. The rubbish is taking up part of the drive I prefer to park and it’s also just making the drive look untidy. The roofer was very fast spoken and very much after the money! Anyway it’s done now just need to feel with the rubbish.Initial mortgage bal £487.5k, current £258k, target £243,750(halfway!)

I guess with midrange I can do the normal waste and maybe chuck the bones into the bin? 🫣🤫🤷♀️ I really don’t want to keep the food bin anymore! 😷 the smell can be off as you use plastics and it seems a waste to chuck out daily a plastic with a few food bits.Sealed pot challenge 822
